This is a follow-up paper describing experiences gained from the bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) seed strategy in Malawi, published in the Journal of Sustainable Agriculture in 2000. The strategy included: informal seed multiplication using smallholder farmers; informal seed distribution using groce...

Genetics and breeding for tolerance in beans to soil fertility related constraints: a review
The SADC/CIAT bean program to serve the more southern latitudes started in 1991 in Malawi with the arrival of a bean breeder. A large number of germplasm lines introduced from CIAT, Colombia and from the national programs in the region were evaluated at Bunda and Dedza for disease resistance, gen...

Beans (Phaseolus vulgaris) are grown in several countries, representing different ecologies in the Southern African Region. Two regional trials, Southern African Regional Bean Evaluation Nursery (SARBEN) composed of germplasm lines and Southern African Regional Bean Yield Trial composed of finish...
